Cutaways are for reaching higher frets on the fingerboard. Acoustic (including classical) players don't really go to the higher frets "very often" because usually it wouldn't make much noise and sounds a bit weak. Electric players on the other hand do tend to use the higher frets.

Can the 3 nylon strings on a classical guitar be replaced with all steel strings?
no, a classical guitar doesn't always have a truss rod. The added tension could warp the neck making it unplayable over time. In my experience classical guitars also have softer frets than a steel string guitar. Steel strings would eat away at a classical guitars frets in no time. I've personally witnessed classical guitars that were ruined because someone wanted to use steel strings on them.
